Treasure Island

By Robert Louis Stevenson, adapted for the stage by Louise Haddington

From the award-winning producers and creative team behind last year's sell-out hit The Railway Children, Treasure Island sails into the Tabard Theatre this Christmas in a thrilling new stage adaptation.

Long before Pirates of the Caribbean, there was Treasure Island – the original pirate adventure that has captivated audiences for generations.

When young Jim Hawkins discovers a mysterious treasure map, he is swept into a dangerous voyage across the high seas in search of buried treasure. Along the way he encounters mutiny, mystery and the unforgettable Long John Silver in Robert Louis Stevenson's timeless tale of adventure and discovery.

Packed with excitement, humour and heart, this brand-new adaptation, directed by Artistic Director Simon Reilly, brings one of literature's greatest adventures vividly to life in the intimate surroundings of the Tabard Theatre.

Perfect for families, adventurers and dreamers of all ages – book early before all the treasure is gone!

Why the Tabard Tells Classic Children's Stories at Christmas

Every theatre has its Christmas tradition. For many, it's pantomime. At the Tabard, ours has become something rather different.

Each Christmas we return to the great children's classics, creating original family productions that invite audiences to rediscover the stories they thought they knew.
